Since the question occasionally arises here of our obligation (or not) of attending irreverent Masses, I posted the link for an article by Fr. David Nix on the subject.  He uses Dr. Kwasnieski as his authority, and for a refreshing change, quotes pre-Counciliar moral theologians who discuss any and all valid reasons the obligation would cease to bind.
"O Lord, save Thy people and bless Thine inheritance, granting to Thy people victory over all their enemies, and by the power of Thy Cross preserving Thy commonwealth."

"Through the prayers of the Theotokos O Savior save us"

Bonaventure

Put not your trust in princes, in sons of men in whom there is no salvation. When his breath departs he returns to his earth; on that very day his plans perish.

Another authority is Prummer:

QuoteAny cause which is moderately grave excuses from the precept- namely, any reason which involves some notable inconvenience or harm to mind or body either of oneself or of another
Put not your trust in princes, in sons of men in whom there is no salvation. When his breath departs he returns to his earth; on that very day his plans perish.

Thank you, Drummerboy, that was most reassuring.
My Lord and my God.
Ven. Matt Talbot, pray for Tom.
